“Candace was a great sitter! Her parents were helpful as well. Cassie was in good hands and was well taken care of. We were so thankful they accommodated us picking up Cassie after our evening flight.”

“I can’t enough great things about Maribel. It was my first time boarding my precious Nanni. She was so very reassuring and she went out of her way to take great care and make Nanni feel at home. I will definitely be using Maribel again. You have a real gem with her.”

“Samantha was great! Extremely responsive and took care of our pup like it was her own! She sent photos during our dog’s stay which we loved seeing! It looked like our pup had a great time! We definitely recommend her to anyone who needs her pup taken care of.”

“Henry and Cherlye Ann were amazing sitters! I felt good as soon as we shock hands in their beautiful vegetable garden (thanks for the rosemary and basil sprigs!) Penny was immediately comfortable and settled right in. They were very responsive and kept me up to date on Penny’s stay. HIGHLY RECOMMEND as sitters; it was very comforting to know they only take on one dog at a time as Penny can be wary of new dogs in close quarters. I know Penny will be back…and honestly, she didn’t seem too keen to leave!”

“John took good care of our Min Pin. He was communicative and responsive. He even helped us out when our flights were delayed. I loved getting picture updates while I was away.”

“Kristen was great! It was our first time using Rover and she took the time to answer all our questions. We could tell our dog was well taken care of during his stay.”

“McKenanne took great care of my dog and was good about communicating before and during my dog's stay. Her two dogs were very friendly which helped to make my dog more comfortable and happy.”

“Natalie did a great job taking care of Bodo! He loved all the walks she took him on and she did a great job of dealing with his anxiety. She kept me updated with pictures the whole time and I knew he was in good hands!”

“This was my first time using Rover and I was extremely nervous. Lydia was amazing with my pups , she sent updates, videos and pictures the whole time. We will definitely be using her for all our trips out of town from now on. I would give 10 stars if I could!!!”

“Jody took great care of my dog, Hank. She was very thorough in getting to know him and very knowledgeable on introducing her dogs to him. I know he had a blast because he came home happy and tired. And the photos she sent of him while he was with her showed how much fun he was having too. If we are ever back in the area I will get her to dog sit him again!”


“Very prompt with responses. It was beyond helpful they were able to pick my dogs up. I am sure my dogs were in good hands and had lots of exercise. THANK YOU!”

“We had a great experience with Emily. We left our puppy with her for 2 nights. She updated us daily with photos. It seemed like our puppy was having a lot of fun with the other dogs which was reassuring. Emily was very accommodating with our drop off and pick up times and communicated with us appropriately. We got our puppy back in good shape and we would definitely trust Emily to take care of our dogs in the future”

“Angela is absolutely amazing. She goes above and beyond to care for your fur babies. Simba was well taken care of and enjoyed his 8 day stay. Will most definitely use Angela again in the future.”


“We highly recommend David! This was our first time using Rover and we were nervous about leaving our dog, Olive, for a whole week with someone we didn't know. After meeting David, our fears dissipated and we felt pretty confident that Olive would enjoy her stay. David has a calm, gentle demeanor, and Olive seemed relaxed around him from the beginning. We enjoyed the daily pictures of Olive that he texted to us. We will definitely ask David again if we need someone to watch our dog!”

“Penny and Evan are amazing!! I was so impressed with how much love and care they gave to Sushi and Sasha. They walked, played with and petted my two dogs, as well as sending photos and videos. The best part is that the dogs really loved them and felt home!! I highly recommend and definitely will come back.”

“Marah took excellent care of our pup, Stella! She sent pics throughout her stay and was very responsive and accommodating. We have already booked another stay with her! Highly recommend this sitter :)”


“Olivia always has been so wonderful to Gatsby. Always making sure Gatsby gets her exercise. The whole family has been so understanding and so delightful to see. We always trust Olivia and Samantha to keep Gatsby as she feels comfortable & so happy to stay with them. We all are so excited to visit her favorite dog sitter again! Thank you all!! -Stacie, Chris and Gatsby”
